Apollo is a littl clown. He's very agile & can be a little hyper but calms down when you rub his belly. I think Apollo could possible be part Tennessee Treeing Hound.

Apollo is a very friendly Catahoula mix (possiby Tennessee Treeing Hound). He learned the doggy door in minutes & learned sit the next day. He loves to play with toys & other dogs & ignores the cats. He is full of energy, a real lil mess! He is a jumper (can jump pretty high) & seems to fly thru the air at times. He tries to dive into his food when he's being fed. I'm working hard to get him to wait for the okay to eat. He needs lots of chew toys & bones around to satisfy his urge to chew. He sits & shakes on command & is pretty close to being totally housebroken. He will follow you everywhere & lay in the floor nearby chewing on his toys or bones. He loves attention & loves to play with people or other dogs (especially his sister Juna).

It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it.
